This two-part article presents selected findings from the research report entitled Living with HIV and AIDS: Perspectives of women and men in Fiji (2011). Prepared for the National Health Research Committee of the Ministry of Health of Fiji, the report aimed to expose, in simple language supplemented with extracts from interviews, the results of a qualitative study of the experience of people living with HIV, which I conducted as part of my doctoral degree in anthropology at the School for Advanced Studies in Social Sciences (École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales).
